North Georgia Gal's Financial Awakening

Trying to Make Smarter Decisions Day by Day

Where to Begin...it is hard to believe that it has been 9 years since I started this Blog. You guys have always been here supporting me and cheering me on.

I am in the process of refinancing my LOC into a mortgage, rolling my credit card debt into it. Will probably then close all of my credit cards after that.

I still have my budget in place for a couple of months out, but I still have to make changes to it.

I hope to sell my house in about 6 months, and move closer to my kids, about an hour away. I will still commute to work because it would only be about 40 minutes. But this can't happen until my responsibility to my mom is done, she is close to moving in with my niece, but who knows when that will happen.

Credit Score Moving on Up!

August 6th, 2009 at 12:37 pm

I got my credit score at credit karma at the first of the year. I got it again yesterday. It has gone up 40 points! YEAH!!! It was real low. Now I am almost out of the poor area and into the fair section! YEA!!!

My kids got their school clothes yesterday and did very well. I had given them a set amount and they didn't go over it. DD was $80 under but then I ordered her some shorts online.

I am at home today with a UTI. Waiting for the doctor to call in a prescription. UGGG!!!! Very uncomfortable.

Great job on the credit score! And, uh, I hear ya about the UTI. Mine got so frequent I got put on a medicine for 6 months just to clear up the system and give it a rest. I've heard pregnant women are more prone to 'em, so I'm afraid I'm going to end up on another long-term medicine!

I am already on a long term medication! This is the first one I have had in a while...but they are frustrating. The peredium makes me nauseas so I am pretty much out of commission until the antibitotics kick in.

That is great about how this all leads to a higher score! It pays off in the end, and you can be pleased with yourself. I hope that your insurance at least covers most of the medication costs for you...
